    If\[^{n}{{P}_{4}}=30{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{5}}\], then \[n=\] [MP PET 1995]

    A) 6

    B) 7

    C) 8

    D) 9

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\frac{^{n}{{P}_{4}}}{^{n}{{C}_{5}}}=30\Rightarrow \frac{n\ !}{(n-4)\ !}\times \frac{5\ !\ .\ (n-5)\ !}{n\ !}=30\] \[\Rightarrow (n-4)=4\Rightarrow n=8\].
